US warns Hezbollah to stay out of Gaza war
Lebanese terror group Hezbollah should not make the “wrong decision” of opening a second front against Israel as it battles attacks by Hamas, a senior US defense official warns.
“We are deeply concerned about Hezbollah making the wrong decision and choosing to open a second front to this conflict,” the official tells journalists.
Five members of the terror group were killed in strikes by Israel after cross-border fire and an infiltration attempt on the Lebanon border.
